MORGANTOWN, W.Va.— Former West Virginia guard Beetle Bolden plans to spend his graduate transfer season at Alabama.
Bolden’s announcement Sunday on Twitter came 38 days after the guard’s late-season departure from the Mountaineers. He averaged 12.2 points across 18 games as a junior despite hand and ankle injuries.
Coincidentally, one of Bolden’s best performances this past season came against his new Crimson Tide coach. Nate Oats led Buffalo to a 99-94 win in Morgantown on Nov. 9 when Bolden scored 21 points on 6-of-9 shooting and added four assists and two steals.
A 40-percent career 3-point shooter, Bolden appeared in 82 games at West Virginia.
